4 tax purposes, taxable income determined as if such
5 corporation had filed a separate return for federal
6 income tax purposes for the taxable year and each
7 preceding taxable year for which it was a member of
8 an affiliated group. For purposes of this
9 subparagraph, the taxpayer's separate taxable income
10 shall be determined as if the election provided by
11 Section 243(b) (2) of the Internal Revenue Code had
12 been in effect for all such years;

17 the Internal Revenue Code;
18 (G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case
19 of: (i) a Subchapter S corporation for which there

21 Section 1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, the
22 taxable income of such corporation determined in
23 accordance with Section 1363(b) of the Internal
24 Revenue Code, except that taxable income shall take
25 into account those items which are required by
26 Section 1363(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code to
27 be separately stated; and (ii) a Subchapter S
28 corporation for which there is in effect a federal

32 effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of such
33 corporation determined in accordance with the
34 federal Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1,
-23- LRB9003183DNmb

6 those items which are required by Section 703(a)(1)
7 to be separately stated but which would be taken
8 into account by an individual in calculating his
9 taxable income.
10 (f) Valuation limitation amount.
11 (1) In general. The valuation limitation amount
12 referred to in subsections (a) (2) (G), (c) (2) (I) and
13 (d)(2) (E) is an amount equal to:
14 (A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969
15 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
16 gain reportable under the provisions of Section 1245
17 or 1250 of the Internal Revenue Code) for all
18 property in respect of which such gain was reported
19 for the taxable year; plus
20 (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the
21 pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amounts (to the
22 extent consisting of capital gain) for all property
23 in respect of which such gain was reported for
24 federal income tax purposes for the taxable year, or
25 (ii) the net capital gain for the taxable year,
26 reduced in either case by any amount of such gain
27 included in the amount determined under subsection
28 (a) (2) (F) or (c) (2) (H).
29 (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.
30 (A) If the fair market value of property
31 referred to in paragraph (1) was readily
32 ascertainable on August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1,
33 1969 appreciation amount for such property is the
34 lesser of (i) the excess of such fair market value
-24- LRB9003183DNmb
1 over the taxpayer's basis (for determining gain) for
2 such property on that date (determined under the
3 Internal Revenue Code as in effect on that date), or
4 (ii) the total gain realized and reportable for
5 federal income tax purposes in respect of the sale,
6 exchange or other disposition of such property.
7 (B) If the fair market value of property
8 referred to in paragraph (1) was not readily
9 ascertainable on August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1,
10 1969 appreciation amount for such property is that
11 amount which bears the same ratio to the total gain
12 reported in respect of the property for federal
13 income tax purposes for the taxable year, as the
14 number of full calendar months in that part of the
15 taxpayer's holding period for the property ending
16 July 31, 1969 bears to the number of full calendar
17 months in the taxpayer's entire holding period for
18 the property.
19 (C) The Department shall prescribe such
20 regulations as may be necessary to carry out the
21 purposes of this paragraph.
22 (g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided
23 otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item
24 to be deducted more than once.
25 (h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided
26 by this Section there shall be no modifications or
27 limitations on the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction
28 taken into account in determining gross income, adjusted
29 gross income or taxable income for federal income tax
30 purposes for the taxable year, or in the amount of such items
31 entering into the computation of base income and net income
32 under this Act for such taxable year, whether in respect of
33 property values as of August 1, 1969 or otherwise.
